Spring and summer vacay is upon us… here are some top tips on how to keep your tots entertained on long journeys.
To start with, pack their best-loved stuffed toy – the connection kids have with their soft toys can be very comforting – they provide a buddy to cuddle if they are a bit scared, and brings familiar comfort in strange, new and chaotic surroundings.
Tablets & smartphones – A smartphone, tablet or iPad full of children’s e-books and movies is a wonderful way to ensure they stay entertained for a while. You could also download games, educational apps and other multimedia platforms that your little ones might find entertaining.
Kid’s headphones – We all worry about our children’s hearing. You can now buy headphones that are specially made for kids – they have built-in volume control, to ensure little ears don’t get damaged, and those sitting close by don’t get irritated by secondary noise.
Finger foods – Raisins or other small snacks allow babies and toddlers to practice their pincer movement and finger dexterity. For older children, biscuits can be a good choice, and lollipops as well to help with the change in air pressure.
A children’s magazine – Pick one up from the airport for cheap, and they almost guaranteed to provide hours of entertainment. You often get freebies like stickers and other smaller toys – bonus!
Crayons – To draw with or use with activity books. No need to sharpen, and if you get them on your clothing they easily wash off!
A new toy – You can’t beat the excitement a new toy brings! A new toy will certainly provide extra entertainment… at least until the novelty wears off, or it breaks!
